Recently while I was working on a map I constantly used to get this error


Error 3 Output validation error: Root element is missing


I thought that since I have not mapped few Destination fields it might be throwing such error.


I tried setting Output Validation False for the Map.


Still I was getting the same error.


The Map was a simple one to one link map.


I was confident that my input xml file was perfect and  I did confirm it by Validating it against the Input Schema again.


It got succeeded.No errors at all.


Now where could be the problem be.


So I just googled and got this link by Stephen.

And then I cross verified my Target namespace in the input Schema with the input xml file.


There was a blank space before and after the namespace in my Schema which was creating this problem for me.


Moral of the story:


” Validating the xml file against the Schema never assures that the two match each other”.
